My Hair Falls Out When Shampooing Sore Parts of My Scalp

Hi Doctor,

When shampooing my hair, I notice that I lose the most hair from the sore parts of my scalp. What do you think could be causing this? I alternate between Head and Shoulders and Nizoral.

Thank you.

There’s no way for me to answer this question or even take a stab at an explanation without knowing your hair loss history. If you seriously want answers, you need to have your scalp examined by a physician.

Sore spots on your scalp could be a variety of things, from dermatitits to psoriasis to acne. The vast majority of hair loss in men is caused by genetic androgenic alopecia, but if you’re concerned you should see a dermatologist about your tender scalp.
